Ryde Business Association

Ryde Business Association This is the official page for Ryde Business Association - Isle of Wight. Share Expertise:
If you work, live, shop, visit the town then we want your input.

The Aims of Ryde Business Association are:

Enhance the Town through joint working:
The high street economy is a tough market and it is something that needs continued work. Towns that have been successful at promoting themselves and generating greater year round income are those who work together and embrace the creative elements of their community. In Ryde we have this in abundance so we would l

ike to create closer joint working between the council, businesses and the arts, music, and creative sectors. This is where the expertise comes from, whether it is an established business or someone setting up for the first time. The RBA monthly meetings are an opportunity for people to share their views so we can gain a good understanding of what people like and what they don't, and consider ways we can improve, update and maintain what we have to offer. Be Innovative:
This is another key essential to keeping towns vibrant and moving forward. Ryde is certainly not a sleepy place full of retirement homes that some, who are not familiar, may believe. We need to think outside the box, try new things and be creative. Promote Ourselves:
Successful towns are ones who advertise what they have to offer, both as individual businesses and as a whole community. With better promotion we can help advertise the town not just to holiday makers but to other island residents. Support:
We are particularly passionate about smaller independent businesses. We are lucky to have so many in Ryde, so we will be looking at how best to support these whilst working alongside the bigger commercial high street names. Membership is open to any business, individual or organisation based in the Ryde area, from £50 for the year. Email [email protected] for further information.

We're thrilled to share the stunning transformation of this historic building at 97 High Street, Ryde. Many of you know and love this iconic structure, and we're excited to announce that it has undergone a complete renovation.

After many years of being left untouched, closed, and becoming a site for antisocial behavior and rubbish accumulation, this wonderful building has finally been fully saved and restored by Dr Ilioski and his wife PharmDr MIKA their friends and families.

Thanks to their dedication and hard work, the building has been given a new lease on life.
